The past few days I have been cutting back on the Galliprant. Unfortunately, its not worked at all!! Eli has been struggling more to get up and tends to poop when he does. So were back on the Galliprant.

It's taken a few days but thankfully we've got Eli's pain under control again with the Galliprant. Today he had an amazing walk, he so enjoyed it. I think he could have gone further but one block down and back is enough for any one time for now. It was so nice seeing him so happy.

We've been having temps in the 70's so not much use for his leg warmers right now, but I'm ready for when the temps cool. I'm going to make some with pockets that I can put heated rice packs in for when I give him his massage. I think the extra heat will feel really good for him.

OMG, Eli just jumped up on the sofa....yes he jumped!!!!!!!!!!! Both back legs jumped I can't believe it!!!! He can walk up onto the sofa but I was watching him and he used both back legs to JUMP!!!!!!! I am so doing the happy dance!!!!!!!!!

I've really increased his massages so maybe its really paying off. I'm just so happy. Even though he can walk onto the sofa he doesn't do it often anymore as he's just too uncertain, but this time he jumped right up there!!!!!

I am so enjoying every moment with Eli. His spirit and love keeps pushing me to want to do more for him. I love him so much. I just can't believe what I saw. Both legs worked together without hesitation. I haven't seen that in ages.

I'm doing the happy dance right along with you and the happy boogie too! Eli is undoubtedly telling you how much he appreciates all your efforts and he's not giving up.
